Ducati Monster Forum

I've read in passing that the filler on these bikes is a common type?

what about the tank flange underneath?

is there another source for this part?

Are you talking about the conical dohicky that *was* in the fill port?

No, the whole metal assembly that the hoses are attached to.

Pretty sure they are common to all monsters until the 696

yeah, i know that...


but are they used on anything else?

Old SBKs I think 748/916 era

lol  i meant anything besides Ducatis...

Yamaha.

really?  what model(s)

thanks

Nice to know, thanks.  I had read that the top part, the one with the cap, could fit the Yammies, but didn't know about the bottom part.  [thumbsup]

are you sure?  i'm talking about the lower part, not the top (top=part that opens)

Sorry - the only thing I know is that the top/outer ring is the same size and bolt configuration. After that, I'm guessing that the cap is similar. Anyway, it could be a smart place to start looking....

i saw that the FZR uses the same filler cap, but I think the lower flange is part of the tank... it's not show with a separate part # as on the ducati models..

 :(

Your picture shows a metal tank flange?

I assume the plastic tanks are similar to Yamahas with a built in flange.

Did earlier Yamahas have a separate flange on metal tanks with the same cap, perhaps?

plastic tanks have the flange built in. 

no idea about the fzr tanks.
